How to Set the Memory Cap Enforcement Threshold

Caps can be configured so that they will not be enforced until the physical
memory available to processes is low. See Memory Cap Enforcement Threshold for more information.

The minimum (and default) value is 0, which means
that memory caps are always enforced. To set a different minimum, follow this
procedure.

Become superuser, or assume a role that includes the Process Management
profile.

The System Administrator role includes the Process Management
profile. For information on how to create the role and assign the
role to a user, see Managing RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration
Guide: Security Services.

Use the -c option of rcapadm to set a different physical memory utilization value for
memory cap enforcement.

# rcapadm -c percent

percent is in the range 0 to 100. Higher
values are less restrictive. A higher value means capped project workloads
can execute without having caps enforced until the system's memory utilization
exceeds this threshold.
